Solution

The correct option is B
Loss of nutrient

Only pure water is lost due to transpiration in the form of water vapor hence, there is no loss of nutrient. The loss of water as vapor has a cooling effect on the plant. Transpirational pull is a major factor responsible for ascent of sap, especially in tall trees.
